How to create Image borders?

[bradlawson]

TinaS,

I really appreciate your commnets. In my main site i use tables with a 1px repeat for the left and right border. The problem is how do you do that in CSS.

I am guessing that the code change is in the stylesheet_new.css
#navColumnOne {
padding: 0.5em;
border-left: 1px solid #cccccc;
{

I thought i coud change that to

{
a img border: url(../images/TMiddle750.gif);
background-repeat: repeat-y;
}


BUT that doesn't work, so if someone could explain why my fault is i woudl really appreciate it.

Thanks,

Brad

So i figure it out, most likely a stupid way, but in the end it is a way. I just added opened up the tpl_main_page.php and added as background to the side columns. You have to edit the file a special width for the right side but hey it works and know that i figure it out it shouldn't take long to do it again to another website. I know you all are thinking, USE CSS that is what is for, but i played around with it for hours with no luck so i have to go back to what i knew. But main reason for this post is to thank TinaS for trying explain it to me. If anyway wants more info and how i made it work just email me.

Hi again - yup you are right everyone is gonna tell you to use the css - but hey if you got it to work for you that's what counts :)

Thanks for mentioning me in your reply - I am sorry I wasn't much more help.
